I own several pieces as you can probably tell from the picture, but this was the most enjoyable. After the Death Star I thought they couldn't top it. This set is both great for Potter or Lego die hards. Absolutely recommend.

This is by far the most detailed set I have ever built. Many of the build techniques used in this set are brilliant. The stained glass effect works great and the outer details, including all of the rocks on the base work very well. This is one where you build it and find a place in your home for it to be viewed for a long time.
There are more stickers than I would like, but the amount of story detail that they provide are impressive. This set pulls from elements from all chapters of the series.
If you light this set up, it truly becomes magical and the details really shine.
This is my favorite lego set by far.

Spending £350 on what a lot of friends and relatives call 'a lump of plastic' was a daunting prospect, but as soon as I saw this set, I knew I had to VIP up and get it, and I'm so glad I did. The level of detail is unprecedented, and creating each little diorama adds to the excitement as the build progresses. I love that Devil's Snare is hidden 'in the depths of the castle' and isn't actually visible intil you pull the two halves apart. The tiny details, such as Tom Riddle's Diary on the floor of the Chamber of Secreats, or the Philosopher's stone at the foot of the mirror of Erised just adds to the overall sense of skill and dedication from the designers.
This is microfig scale, and that is to the model's benefit. Having the set as Minifig scale would have made it unweildly and distressingly expensive. This isn't a playset, it's a model to be created and admired.

This is by far one of the best sets I’ve ever built. It has a lot of amazing detailing with almost no repetition. The price for the amount of pieces was amazing, also considering it’s Harry Potter.
I love how it was one bag per section, with likely not more than 200 pieces per bag, meaning you didn’t have to search through hundreds of pieces just to find the right one.
Some of the detailing was impressive, like the stained glass windows and the towers as well as all of the arches.
This set was definitely a great investment.
